## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, programmatic access to public Instagram profile or post data without managing your own Instagram API credentials or scraping infrastructure, and you are already using the KiteEndpoints pay-per-request USDC payment model on Base chain.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent Instagram username returns an error or empty result
- Private Instagram accounts may return limited or no data
- Instagram rate limiting or blocking the proxy may cause failures
- Malformed input parameters result in a generic API error
